agentx and snmp

Hi all,

This is vishnu from india and this is my first mail. we are working on 
optical ADM which works up to speed of sdh16. I have two questions.

1. for the telecom box which have multiple io cards and system controller 
card what are the advantages and disadvantages agentx can give when i 
compared with SNMP for communicaton between master agent and subagent.

2. some my friends proposing SNMP between the master agent and subagent by 
using snmp as explained below.
	A) set operation: when set request reaches master agent,master 		agent gets 
coresponding objects information from various 		subagents and stores in 
temparory memory. now master agent 		issues the set operation on subagent. 
if subagents sends any 		error in resonse messege of set request then master 
agetn 		again issue set request with old values.in this way they are 		doing 
set request automacity.

	 B)dynamic registration: to register with master agent , 		subagent will 
issue a set request to master agent to create 		entry in the registry mib we 
have at master agent. this 		registration mib have the all parameters 
required for dynamic 		registration. using like this dynamic registration 
can be 		acheived.

i am not much convence for this. just i want to put before you all. plese 
give me various points on the above methods.


with regards.
VISHNU
